Please rate the plugin, if you like it! 2. recover Manual                                       *recover-manual* Functionality When using |recovery|, it is hard to tell, what has been changed between the recovered file and the actual on disk version. The aim of this plugin is, to have an easy way to see differences, between the recovered files and the files restored on disk. Therefore this plugin sets up an auto command, that will create a diff buffer between the recovered file and the on-disk version of the same file. You can easily see, what has been changed and save your recovered work back to the file on disk. By default this plugin is enabled. To disable it, use >     :RecoverPluginDisable To enable this plugin again, use >     :RecoverPluginEnable 3. ChangesPlugin Feedback                                   *recover-feedback* Feedback is always welcome.
